School Lunch Ideas

Running out of school lunch ideas? Never fear! When you stock up on school lunch favorites in bulk on Boxed, the combinations are endless. Help fuel their best year yet with on-the-go options from brands you trust, delivered by Boxed.

1. Freeze Juice Boxes to Keep Them Cold

There’s a lot of time between packing lunch in the morning and actual lunchtime. Keep their juice boxes cold until they’re ready to serve by placing them in the freezer overnight. They’ll have plenty of time to thaw to the perfect temperature.

2. A+ School Lunch Note Ideas

Kids love finding notes hidden in their lunchbox. But you don’t have to limit yourself to pen and paper (or should we say pen and napkin); with a Sharpie, you can remind them they’re loved with notes on top of Dole Fruit Cup lids -- the bright contents add some extra pop!

3. Soup And Crackers to Go

Homesick? Soup and crackers immediately recall the comforts of home. Heat soup in the morning and store it in an insulated thermos to keep it warm until lunchtime.

4. Easy Mini Pizza Recipe

Who doesn’t love pizza? This travel-friendly, easy pizza recipe will earn you major points. Just top Boboli Mini Pizza Crusts with sauce, pineapple, pepperoni, Ssäm Sauce, onion and cheese, and broil until the cheese is melted.

5. Right Container, Right Time

Picky eater? Pack each of their favorites separately in dishwasher-safe Prince & Spring Food Storage Containers. We like to prep the night before and store school lunches in these overnight to make our morning routine smoother.

6. Recycle, Reduce, Reuse

Pringles containers make the perfect reusable holder for crayons, mini eraser collections, and more. Turn your child's sandwich sidekick into a lesson about taking care of the environment -- and crafting something creative together. You can decorate with glitter, stickers, paint, and more.

Make this year their best one yet with back-to-school lunch ideas from Boxed, your one-stop shop for school supplies, snacks, and more.
